Tastewise, I liked the original one best. Not too sure about all the other flavours - ginseng and black truffles were okay-ish, cheese and crab-roe were absurdly rich and cloying, the garlic one was pungent and a turn-off, whilst the Sichuanese one should *not* be served in *any* eatery: it was simply *awful*!! The overwhelming Sichuan peppercorn flavour numbed my mouth - it was like swallowing toilet disinfectant. Yech!

XLB aside, the ambience was marvellous (like all Paradise Group restaurants), wait-staff (garbed in shiny costumes which looked like a blend of Mongol-Romulan) were efficient and friendly. I'll come back here for the normal XLB and other dishes in there. P.S. - the tofu-century egg appetiser was fabulous: silken-soft tofu, topped with chopped century egg which lent the dish an intoxicating flavour, finely-chopped scallions and lightly basted with light soysauce.
